The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1887-08-12

arrival of the train till about :JO O'Clock this
morning trying to eXtricate the suffering who
were in such dread of fire, and at that time
friendly shower of rain helped U.S. We
then went to work more deliberately and
continued up to O'Clock, during which
time we removed fifty-eight bodies and
three or four times as many
wounded. The relief train from
the East took the wounded out
to Piper City The city hall and school
house at Chatsworth were improvised into
hospital and the citizens came to our
relief with everything possible" Mr., Risner
said that they had nothing with which to
carry dirt to the wreck, but their
hands. He stood the sickening work of re-
lieving the wounded and getting out the
dead until he came to the dead bodies of two
girls about the age of his own, when his
humanity gave way and he was compelled to
stop. Arch Crosswell and wife, of Peoria,
were on their way to visit their parents in
Kankakee, with their 6-weeks-old baby
Mrs. Crosswell occupied seat in front
of the car next to the door. Mr.. Crosswell
being unable to get q seat with his wife
took another position few yards back.
When the conclusion came the front end of
the car was crushed in and Mrs. Crosswell
was killed The baby was found in the
centre of the car with but slight injuries.
1t was taken to farm house near by and
cared for.
PINNED DOWN BY THE SEATS.
Dr. Hazen, of Fort Madison, Ia, says the
train was running about thirty miles an
hour when the accident occurred. He felt
sudden jar and found himself and his
wife fastened under the seats. He pulled
the backs off of two seats before he could
get his wife out. She was bruised on the
body and both of her feet were crushed
His shoulder was dislocated, and he had it
bks out
of the wreck. In helping others he put it
out of place again, and had to have it pulled
into place the second time. There were
nine persons i'll his party and he can only
